Gary Neville hails retiring Beckham – Football News
Former Manchester United captain and England international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gary-Neville-c14447, has hailed his former teammate, David Beckham, following the midfielder’s announcement that he is retiring from the world of football.
Beckham announced that he would no longer be playing football professionally at any level, once the current season comes to its end. With this statement, Neville has gone on to admit that arguably the most influential
footballer out there has finally called time on his career.
Both Beckham and Neville played together for over a decade, and Neville feels that the midfielder has had a huge impact on the world of football like no one else.
“When you think about the way football has changed over the last 22 years, Beckham has been probably the most influential player of that time out of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 in terms of transforming football,” Neville said in
a recent interview. “I think that is something he is aware of and something he always wanted to do. The impact that he's had is enormous.”
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Beckham-c10432 went on to announce his retirement only days after he won the French Ligue 1 with PSG. Given the circumstances, Neville feels that Beckham picked the right moment to call time on his career. He feels the midfielder has proven his worth over the
years and that going out with a league title is one of the best ways to call it quits.
“He feels like it's the right time. This has been a huge week in terms of retirements with Scholes, Ferguson and now http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 but he just feels he's taken it as far as he can,” Neville continued.
At the moment, it is not certain if Beckham is going to end up pursuing a career in management. He has hinted doing this in the past but has not made any official comments in regards to that.
Nonetheless, should the player ever decide to follow that path, there are going to be more than a few teams willing to sign him as a manager.
